PostNuke | PostCalender Question

Hi,

I am trying to install the PostCalender module to the PostNuke site I am working on and am coming up with tons of permission errors. I am sure it has to to with the following section of the Install Instructions.

Two directories need to be changed to world readable and writable, these are:
/html/modules/PostCalendar/pntemplates/cache, and
/html/modules/PostCalendar/pntemplates/compiled
In *nix, you would "chmod 777 cache compiled"
This will allow the Smarty Template Engine to read and write from/into the cache and compiled directories.
If you would like to change the path of these directories, you can change the value of $this->compile_dir and $this->cache_dir in the pcSmarty.class.php file to point to wherever you'd like templates to be compiled. Moving this out of the webroot might not be that bad of an idea.

I did this part...

What does "In *nix" mean? I did not do that, as I do not know what it means.
